To be LIVID

This week has been a nightmare. My regular childcare wasn't able to do our 2 days this week and DS came home Monday after surgery so very poorly and without the use of his right arm. Major stress levels.

Anyway 1st day sorted with the help of fab relative. 2nd day my sister said she would help me out. I was due to leave at 8am but she said that was a bit early and so could she arrive at 10, I explained that the children couldn't be left with DH due to teh GA and his lack of limbs! So I had another family member on stand by.

  1. She arrives 2 hours late.
  2. She asks DH to install car seats as she wanted to go out! :0 Even though these were brought to her the day before.
  3. She brings baby back with a dirty nappy and asks DH to do it as she couldn't face it. He had a red bottom as a result.
  4. She leaves an hour before I get home.

I AM LIVID and shocked TBH. I thought more of her. She has phoned a few times this evening and I have ignored her calls as I am soooooooooo engry.

Poor DH just cried and went to bed when I got home. His mum had offered but my sister was keen to do it!

AIBU to expect her to do what she said she would 'love' to do. Thank god I only work 2 days because this week has emotionally killed me.

Did you speak to your sister? what was said?!

I just said what had happened ie he was back in hospital and I had no idea he had to do so much that day to help her.

She said something along the lines of (via text) she needed a bit of help and I was ungrateful etc ......

Not heard anything since!

She has a way of making everything about her! Rrrrrrrrr!

I think zipzap is a genius... I'd go with the emotional response and see how she wriggles out of that! Your sister, I mean, not zipzap.

TBH it would come VERY naturally just to flood with tears at her! I am so tired had to do everything this week, night feeds all the usual day stuff, bath bed times etc. DH really can't do anything booo!
I think she will ignore me for a while though!
